he doesnt have an standard exhaust alignment though. He'd have to chop up a MD exhaust to just basically use the resonator.

Tough to say if that would eliminate the drone since the "Y pipe" is essentially the turbo. A 6" magnaflow canister muffler before the tip would help though.

I'm trying to figure out the best solution for a dual exit exhaust on this set up... I love hearing the turbo spinning freely as you blip around the parking lot, but I'm too OCD to have a straight through, single exit, pipe. I gotta have dual exit...

It's petty simple , reverse y pipe and add a second exhaust pipe...

Why not just put a vband at the right spot and just use one of the axle back "mufflers"? No reverse Y needed. Then you can use any of the Motordyne mufflers from there... Unless you need the flow of dual 3"...

that works too. I was just looking at cost. Just another run of piping is cheap to weld up to the current one.

might as well get a powerlab kit then as there's no reason for a such a fabrication heavy kit (ie $$$$$) for those goals.

ya, turbo is way too big for those power goals. You're sacrificing 1000rpm of spool time for no reason.
